TinTower posted:If Chibnall was showrunner, he would not have had the sense of mind to refrain from dropping a reference to the original title of And Then There Were None in the final script. This is a weird accusation because I've read The Writer's Tale and I know for a fact that actually, yes, DAVIES' original script for Unicorn and the Wasp DID have a """joke"" where Donna was going to say "Ten Little- " and the Doctor would interrupt her with the phrase "niggles aside". Wisely cut. DoctorWhat fucked around with this message at 16:31 on Oct 30, 2022 |

Watching all of Classic Who in a binge format is hellish. It's not modern television and it's not meant to be consumed that way; stick to the greatest hits. The other thing about the Fourth Doctor is that he has two-and-a-bit "eras" across seven years with some major tonal differences; mainly Phillip Hinchecliff's Hammer Horror-inspired gothic space peril, and Douglas Adams and co's more Bohemian adventure-comedies. Great Four stories include Ark in Space, Genesis of the Daleks, City of Death, The Ribos Operation, and The Pirate Planet.

I think that people get overly angry when characters experience unjust or unfair fates. I thought Donna's tragedy was heartbreaking and horrible, but so did every single character in the show. That being said, I think this opportunity to give her a happier ending or a self-driven conclusion is cool as a look back on the Doctor as a character and their regrets. She doesn't strictly need a happy ending. She could make a fully informed sacrifice!

What you're picking up on is that Catherine Tate is a comedian famous for self-deprecation and abrasive characters and Russell T. Davies was writing Donna to fit Tate's skill set and reputation.

They also got Tate to play Magicia DeSpell on DuckTales against Tennant's Scrooge.

It is my opinion that Donna's more comedic Tate-y bits enhance, rather than detract from, her incredibly high-quality dramatic moments, and vice-versa. It affords her a depth and variety of character.

The destruction of Gallifrey isn't "undone", Gallifrey is spirited away from the moment of its destruction to parts unknown. All incarnations of the Doctor from points in his personal timeline prior to DotD will forget that this occured, and resume their lives assuming that Gallifrey was destroyed at their hand, because it was - that's a decision they still made. Multi-Doctor stories never stick in the memories of Emeritus Doctors. The numbering of incarnations is, in fact, off by one. What that means in terms of regeneration limits is at that point unclear but does factor into Time of the Doctor, which is the final Eleven episode.

Peri and the Piscon Paradox was an incredible Nev Fontain joint but I've honestly been disappointed with everything from him regarding Peri I've heard since.

It's also true that the 9/10 screwdriver prop was prone to fragility and was eventually replaced by a modified version of the toy.

Warthur posted:I will give Moffat this much: it makes sense she's ten steps ahead of the Doctor when she first shows up, because she's at the end of her timeline where she knows more than the Doctor does. But the steps ahead should have been dialled back on subsequent appearances as she got less ahead of the Doctor and the Doctor caught up with her. The Husbands of River Song is literally about this flip.

There was, during Moffat's run, an extremely popular paranoid assumption that Moffat's writing was borne out of arrogance or spite. Many people cling to this baseless assumption to this day.

It's also important to remember that in the '60s '70s '80s television was sort of a monoculture. If you've been on a drama like the brothers, everyone knew about it.

It's horror! It's not "not followed up on", it's a key part of Missy's plan - terrify the public in order to secure corpses for cyber-conversion and also because she thinks it's funny. If no one thinks the dead feel pain, no one donates bodies to her scheme.

jisforjosh posted:Finally finished Heaven Sent in my rewatch, which I hadn't seen since it's original airing, and Moffat can be so drat frustrating. He's capable of some amazing scripts and stories that my mind tends to gravitate to when I think back on what is Doctor Who. Heaven Sent is quite possibly my favorite episode of the entire revival and Capaldi absolutely knocks it out of the park in a incarnation defining performance...but then Hell Bent... Is almost as good!
